Match Preview
This is a must win game for Wigan already this season, they will be in a relegation battle from the off this season and any home game against the new boys blackpool demands a victory, fail to do so could be cosly at the end of the campaign. They will hand debuts to Argentinian striker Mauro Boselli and new defensive duo Antolin Alcaraz (Paraguay) and Ronnie Stam (Netherlands) when they face the new boys on Saturday.
Blackpool had endured a torrid pre-season suffering setback after setback in the pursuit of new players, until today that is with no less than five players signed in one day, the most recognised of which is Marlon Harewood, the striker has signed a two-year deal with the seasiders. They also brough in Craig Cathcart from Manchester United’s reserve team and three foreign players from the french league that no one has heard of – yet!
Conclusion
I just wonder if the high of actually getting into the premier league will continue into this game for Ian Holloway’s seasiders to enable them to get a result against their more established hosts Wigan. I think this will be a home win but it won’t be easy as Holloway will have his players fired up. Marlon Harewood to score on debut may be a goer!
